[quote=Anonymous]How do you make yourself feel better? I’m not sure this is the right spot for this topic — my kid is a mess (dyslexic, dysgraphic, ADHD, slogging through freshman year, so much teen attitude). I am married to a great guy. I work full time in a fairly demanding job thabibjsed to enjoy but it is hell right now (lucky to have it but frankly, wish I could quit and yes I realize how awful that sounds — it’s that bad). My mom is elderly, sickly and starting to lose it. I also have a disabled brother who needs help with his care. It’s a lot and I am tired. I’ve thought about getting a hotel room for the night just for the peace and quiet but hate to spend the money. But I need something to change. I feel like I’m losing my mind being a caretaker for so many and running from one thing to the next, never stopping to take care of me. Any suggestions? Every time I take a day off work, I pay for it in spades. [/quote]
